The net profit attributable to the shareholders of the listed company was RMB2.689 billion, representing an increase of 9.42% on a YOY basis.

Disregarding its impact, net profit attributable to the shareholders of the listed company increased by 14.26% on a YOY basis. In the period under review, the Company maintained good operation quality. The net cash inflow from operating activities amounted to RMB1.846 billion, representing a YOY increase of 40.93%.

During the period under review, the Company's manufacturing business maintained high growth. A number of products realized faster growth than the industry average, which is mainly due to good performance in the Company's key product sales. The sales revenue of 60 key species was RMB5.864 billion, representing an increase of 12.16% on a YOY basis. Sales revenue from key species accounted for 56.32% of the industrial sales income.

For pharmaceutical services, Shanghai Pharmaceuticals recorded revenue of RMB87.878 billion in the first three quarters, representing 8.33% YOY growth. Profit contributed by the industry and services sectors grew 11.38%. The growth of revenue from this sector slowed down as the implementation of the two-invoice system had an impact on the sales to other distributors, but it had limited influence on profit. In the long term, the two-invoice system will help hasten integration of the industry and enhance the circulation efficiency, so as to boost the sustaining growth of large distribution enterprises.
